Afternoon all!
A traipse around the Tye this morning with the boy. Got him out on his current bike - he’s getting a new one in two weeks’ time for his birthday, so I want to get as much use out of this one before then!
Then after lunch, a visit to a garden centre. This also features a pit stop in the cafe, where I consumed a delicious bowl of chips. 4*
Filmblog: apparently we’re watching The Lost Boys later. I’m terribly excited!

Your kids a bit young for that. It will end in tears.

We went for a walk round ‘The Dee’ and visited the lighthouse. I realised that every time I’ve been here in the past I’ve walked anti-clockwise around the lighthouse, when really it would have been more auspicious to go clockwise. So that’s what I did.
We saw some painted pebbles outside a house. A true seaside ‘vibe’. One of them was of a brightly coloured scene featuring King William of Orange, circa 1690.

Just had a chicken & chickpea stew thing. No chorizo as we had bacon at lunchtime. Added some coriander that was in the fridge from last weekend.
Think I got away with it. "Dad, is that parsley?" Tbf there was also parsley in it, innit.
Added a nice undertone to it. Seeing as we're discussing N. Ireland.
Some games in a bit. Think the pm is going swimming so I'll break out botw while the child watches shite TV before bed.

Should have plonked it in front of the TV all day, job done.

I'm playing Stray. Meow. 4 whiskers. I've met B12 and gone outside on the bucket. Had to switch off so the child could watch TV before bed.

Is the cat always the wrong side of the door?

Bet it would be great to play whilst having a smoke. Or maybe one of Cranks chews.

I had a few refreshers earlier, if you know what I mean. If you don't, they are a brand of sweets manufactured by 'Barratts'.

The flip side of that is I just got a bronze award for being a cat and putting my head in a paper bag.

I've saved my game now. Not by choice I might add. The younglings spotted me playing and have commandeered my PS5 and created their own save slot each. Little turds. I endorse Keza's review. 4*

Mildly disappointed that nobody commented on my "In the summer time..." with regards to todays Wordle.
